BREAKING: Police, Army Others Set To Effect Court Order On Kano Emirship Tussle

Eko Hot Blog reports that the Kano State Commissioner of Police, Usaini Gumel has revealed that the police is working with other security agencies to effect court order on the emirship tussle in the state.

He stated this while speaking to journalists on Saturday after a meeting at the Command Headquarters with the Nigerian Army Brigade Commander, as well as representatives from the Navy, Airforce, and other security agencies.

Recall that Governor Kabir Yusuf had earlier ordered the immediate arrest of the deposed Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero.

The governor gave the order in a statement on Saturday morning issued by his spokesperson, Sanusi Bature Dawakin Tofa.

According to the statement, Yusuf accused Ado Bayero of disturbing public peace and attempting to destroy the relative peace the state enjoys following his return on Saturday morning.

The statement reads: “The former Emir was smuggled into Kano city last night in an attempt to forcefully return to the palace two days after being deposed by the Governor.

“As the Chief Security Officer of the state, His Excellency, the Executive Governor of Kano State, Alhaji Abba Kabir Yusuf, has directed the Commissioner of Police to arrest the deposed Emir with immediate effect for disturbing public peace and attempting to destroy the relative peace the state enjoys.”

But the Police Commissioner, while providing an update to the media regarding the current security situation in the state, said: “We have not received the official communication regarding Governor Yusuf’s instruction to arrest the 15th Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero.”

He stated that the police is collaborating with the military and other security agencies to guarantee adherence of a court order.

According to him, the law’s stance is unequivocal, and those who disregard it will be held accountable under the full force of the law.

Recall that a Federal High Court in Kano had issued an order stopping the Kano State Government from enforcing the Kano State Emirate Council Repeal Law.
